with approximately 7 million annual boardings. GETD has an active fleet of (86) fixed route low

floor transit buses plus (19) paratransit vehicles. Golden Empire Transit District realizes that

OBVSS could increase the safety of our customers and employees. The video system will

primarily be used for accident and incident investigations and to increase the safety of our

operations.

The District operates out of one facility located at 1830 Golden State Ave. Bakersfield, CA.

93301. The fleet contains the following vehicles:

Fixed Route Transit Buses

(24) 2005 40 foot, low floor New Flyer C40LF.

Vehicle Acceptance Testing

Vehicle Acceptance testing shall be carried out for the testing and acceptance of the onboard

The complete onboard system shall be tested on each vehicle for its compliance with all

technical, functional, installation, and specifications of the system.

Vehicle Acceptance Tests will need to be completed prior to the commencement of the Proof of

Performance Test and Operational Performance Test for their associated vehicle quantities.

The Contractor shall be required to install (as a minimum in temporary state) essential

components of the central system and wireless communication system infrastructure to support

the Vehicle Acceptance Testing procedures.

Proof of Performance Testing

Proof of Performance testing will commence upon the installation of the central system, Wireless

Communications System, and on ten representative fixed route transit buses and three paratransit

vehicles and configuration that will be part of the phase deployment.

All system functions will be tested in the Proof of Performance. All components, subsystems,

and system processes shall be tested individually and together to ensure that they meet the

contract requirements and provide a properly functioning system.

Upon acceptance of the Proof of Performance test results GETD will grant Proof of Performance

Acceptance and authorize the Vendor to proceed with additional on-board installations for the

final Operational Performance test.

Operability Period Test

The Operational Test Period is a thirty (30) day performance test that is initiated once Vehicle

Acceptance has been granted for all remaining vehicles. Through the Operational Test Period,

the system is tested under full operational conditions to ensure that the performance requirements

are met and to measure the system performance under full load conditions, reliability and

availability.

During the Operational Test Period, GETD will operate the system as per normal operations and

document system deficiencies and non-compliances as follows:

Major Issues: “Major Issues” shall constitute:

System deficiencies that impair any system aspect of more than ten percent (10%) of the

14




Total failure of the Wireless Communications System.

System deficiencies that take more than 24 hours to rectify.

Minor Issues: “Minor Issues” shall constitute defects and deficiencies that can be

corrected in less than twenty-four (24) hours.

Minor Issues will be documented and communicated to the Contractor for rectification.

Upon resolution of the issue, further testing will be carried out to document its resolution.

Major Issues will be documented and communicated to the Contractor for rectification. Major

Issues will trigger a reset of the Operational Test Period which will recommence for a thirty (30)

day period upon resolution of the issue. Further testing will be carried out to document

resolution prior to the resetting of the Operational Test Period.

The Operational Test Period will be completed when the full thirty (30) day period of the test is

carried out without any major issues.

Upon completion of the Operational Test Period, resolution of all Minor Issues, submission of all

Phase related documentation, and completion of all Phase related training, will grant Final

System Acceptance to the Contractor.

The Final Acceptance of the system shall be granted upon successful completion of all work

called for by this specification and all related documents, in addition to the successful

completion of the system acceptance tests.

Warranty

a) The warranty period shall run for the entire system and workmanship, including, onboard

video surveillance equipment, backend equipment, software, servers, wireless network

components and spare components, for two (2) years from the date of project acceptance.

b) The Contractor shall warrant that the design, materials, construction, software and

workmanship of the equipment shall reflect the intended use of the equipment and as a

critical tool in operator training and safety.

c) The Contractor shall warrant that the documentation provided shall completely and

accurately reflect the operation and maintenance of the equipment and software, and

provide with all information necessary to maintain the system.

d) If there is a change in the production configuration of any equipment or software being

equipment and software be upgraded to match the updated configuration.

15




e) The Contractor shall warrant that its employees, agents and sub-contractors assigned to

perform services under this contract shall have the proper skill, training and background

to perform in a competent and professional manner and that all work will be so

materials, labor, equipment, software, documentation, services and incidentals as are

necessary to maintain the system in accordance with the warranty.

g) The Contractor shall provide any software upgrades, fixes, updates, or version changes at

no cost to GETD during the warranty period.

h) In addition to the foregoing warranties, the Contractor shall assign to, and shall have the

benefit of, any and all sub-contractors and equipment supplier warranties and

representations with respect to the deliverables provided.

i) The Contractor shall provide a single point of contact for all warranty administration

during the warranty period.

j) The Contractor shall warrant to GETD that GETD shall acquire permanent title to all

equipment and non-proprietary software provided under the Contract, free and clear of all

liens and encumbrances.

Repair or Replacement of Faulty Components

During the warranty period, the Contractor shall repair or replace any faulty components, with

the cost included in the warranty price. GETD will ship each faulty component to the Contractor,

who shall return a new or repaired component within one week of originally receiving it.

warranty period, the component shall be deemed to warrant system-wide replacement.

System-wide replacement shall require the Contractor to replace all units of the suspect

component throughout the system, whether or not they have exhibited any fault.

Spare Parts

Contractor's performance, and was not caused directly or substantially by acts,

omissions, negligence or mistakes of the Contractor, the Contractors subs, or their

agents, and was substantial and in fact caused the Contractor to miss delivery dates,

proofs that are required by the District's C.E.O. to make a decision on any request for

extension. The District's C.E.O. shall examine the request and any documents

supplied by the Contractor and shall determine if the Contractor is entitled to an

extension and the duration of such extension. The District's C.E.O. shall notify the

Contractor of his decision in writing. It is expressly understood and agreed that the

Contractor shall not be entitled to damages or compensation and shall not be

23

reimbursed for losses on account of delays resulting from any cause under this

both the Contractor and the subcontractor and without the fault or negligence

of either of them, the Contractor shall not be liable for any excess costs for

failure to perform, unless the supplies or services to be furnished by the

the Contractor to meet the required delivery schedule.

4. Payment for completed equipment delivered to and accepted by the district

shall be at the contract price. The District may withhold from amounts

otherwise due the Contractor for such completed equipment such sum as the

District determines to be necessary to protect the District against loss because

of outstanding liens or claims of former lien holders.

29

clause, it is determined for any reason that the Contractor was not in default

under the provisions of this clause, or that the default was excusable under the

provisions of this clause, the rights and obligations of the parties shall be the

same as if the notice of termination had been issued pursuant to termination for

convenience of the District.

exclusive and are in addition to any other rights and remedies provided by law

or under this contract.
